because hes starving. Nope. Out and out blatant theft. Until we get legally strict with this, it will continue.

What do you want to do, cut his right hand off?
Shoplifting is a crime. At the levels he took it to, he is facing felony charges. That's pretty strict.
In the real world, he likely didn't drink $2k worth of red bull. With the exception of dog food, he stole things he could easily sell. Common items his community would buy at a discount as long as the containers were in good condition.
Don't know what the solution to shoplifting is, but stricter laws aren't it.
